Life in a College Town by Reid Baer - I’ve lived here forever alone in this old house previously owned probably by a grave tenured professor since it was first built and I’ve thought at least a handful of Times how I’d remodel the place, maybe lower the vaulted ceiling, or refurbish the loo … Oh, so much dreaming about the structure I hardly ever leave the place and never quite make it fit either. I sit comfortably a hermit remembering my parochial childhood. I grew up living close to the Center of Learning … but never in it. -
